I miss the Internet of the late 90s and early 00s

Thanks for the point: I had opened a thread on Boost and learned of the HD button earlier today; had never needed or used it in two years on Boost/Lemmy but good to be aware of. Thank you!

Meaningful. A real win, hard fought. Well done.

Terrifying to live like that. I’m just glad we don’t have any such problems in the USA.

Thank you, found it, “HQ image”.

I never noticed that HD icon before when jumping into an image, thank you. Had never had an issue before but great to know. Thanks!

Oh, wild, I downloaded to my phone and opened and it looks fine. I’m on Lemmy, must be my appp (Boost); normally when I click to open an image it would download the full size version so when zooming you get the full resolution, but this isn’t working on this image for some reason.

Thanks for the image.

Sample size is crap. The age band makes these stupid. Crypto skewed way higher than it should be by including 30&U, excluding those above mid 60s leaves out many with mortgages.

Even if you could extrapolate 8k survey meaningfully–ehich you can’t because age band already screwed it, the title of this graphic buries the lede; more Americans don’t own a single stock than than those that do.

Wow, spoiler alert, apparently E.T. didn’t make that flight.

“All humans are equal, but some humans are more equal than others.”

I just watched gladiator to show the kid for the first time and for me it was the first time in 20 years, he was wonderful. I then watched “space camp” a few days ago which id never seen and Phoenix’s 11-year+old face jumped out of that.

Showing the kid “Sneakers” now, and the kid was blown away Phoenix had a brother (River) who was also an actor.

but rich C-suite aliens managed to buy into the entire illogical chain.

When many decision-makers are incentivized to only care about their next quarterly bonus or stock grant, just like the subprime crisis, people will absolutely set their company up to fail regardless of the consequences. Companies have trained people they are disposable so why would they act in the long term interest of the company? Economics, that is, incentives, are undefeated in making people do things. It may not be what someone intends, but being naive about economics is why adults are needed in designing reward systems (from government policy to company programs).

Such a great lyricist.

“icy” was right there

Musk internet? Hard pass, no pun intended.

Just like Craigslist; every ounce of energy out into veneer is energy not in the core product design and maintenance and also adds cost. Minimal, functional, excellent.

No it isn’t.

(Yes, you’re correct)

No it ISN’T, it’s just CONTRADICTION.
